Hi I've got a Briggs and Stratton 35 classic and it's the one with the diaphragm on the tank style. It won't start and keeps flooding. I don't understand why is flooding when I've already primed it 3 times by pushing the primer bulb after that it shouldn't flood? I'm holding the brake in when pulling to start? I did it a metal pole with the blade the other day and replaced the blade, but where is the petrol coming from? If I'm not priming it?

If it's not the timing (as in the above post), you could try changing the carburettor gasket & diaphragm. It's quite an easy job.

 

I think they're B & S part number 495770 or 795083, but check.

Sounds like you have sheared the flywheel key,and hence timing is out.also check for bent crankshaft...very obvious if it starts and vibrates like mad.

 

 

 

Correct timing was out key was broke
